On Wednesday, a 30-year-old Sudanese migrant spread terror in the streets by threatening passersby with a machete and a butcher’s knife.

The local police, assisted by reinforcement from Psticci and three citizens, attempted to convince the man to surrender his weapons, but he refused. Ultimately the officers had to use force. They succeeded in disarming and arresting the suspect, but not before he had slightly injured a Nigerian who had attempted to intervene.
